Stained and discolored teeth can be a major cause of discomfort and low self-esteem. If you\u2019re self-conscious about the dark shade on some of your teeth, consider teeth whitening.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have discussed below three of the most popular teeth whitening procedures. Find out the one that suits your case best.<\/span><\/p>\n

#1 – Use of gels and strips<\/b><\/h2>\n

These are peroxide-based products that work on stains that don\u2019t run deep beyond the enamel. Gels are applied directly on your teeth using a toothbrush. Strips, on the other hand, are made of clear material and are placed over the discolored teeth for short periods of around 30 minutes at least twice a day for one month.<\/span><\/p>\n

#2 \u2013 Bleaching agents<\/b><\/h2>\n

This is probably the most popular method of teeth whitening. It promises more effective and longer lasting results as it makes use of carbamide peroxide and other generally stronger bleaching compounds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your dentist may opt to use a buffer to prevent the corrosion from bleaching agents that are highly concentrated on hydrogen peroxide.<\/span><\/p>\n

#3 \u2013 Teeth whitening toothpaste<\/b><\/h2>\n

Most low concentrated teeth whitening toothpaste can be obtained over the counter, though it\u2019s advisable that you seek guidance from a specialist to ensure you\u2019re using the right product and in the right way. It\u2019s also recommended that you ensure the product you purchase has the American Dental Association (ADA) seal of approval.<\/span><\/p>\n

Teeth whitening toothpaste can be suitable for you if your stains are from habits such as coffee drinking and cigarette smoking.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where to receive your teeth cleaning<\/b><\/h2>\n

Regardless of the procedure being performed on you, teeth whitening is a single appointment treatment that requires little to no preparation.
